If a creature you control being dealt damage causes a triggered ability of a permanent you control to trigger, that ability triggers an additional time
If it costs 3, it has to have an overwhelming power (Liliana and Blood Moon)
Hes also just a very cheap way to generate 4/4 creature tokens which you can keep alive more easily if you just dont distribute any bounty counters
First, Abzan decks offer you what many would consider the strongest pool of cards for building a reanimator deck
The card they don't want you to draw is exiled with a counter and next turn you can -1 to draw the exiled card instead if you prefer, and that's good card flow over time and another colorless source of card draw
You might be worried about small creatures getting outclassed at the Commander table, but white is the home of small creatures, giving you tools like The Battle of Bywater, Dusk / Dawn, and Assemble the Players to extract the most possible value from your little guys
